Title
Automation-controller: automation-controller: incomplete sanitize_jinja() regex allows jinja template injection into ad-hoc module_args, machine-credential fields, and host names, reaching ansible-core templating in the execution environment
Summary
A flaw was found in the automation-controller input-validation
guard sanitize_jinja(). The function uses two regular
expressions to reject user-supplied Jinja, but the patterns
stop at the first interior '}' or '%' character, so a Jinja
expression containing an inner brace (for example an empty
dict) is accepted while remaining valid Jinja. Because
sanitize_jinja() is the sole guard on several launch-time
fields — ad-hoc command module_args, Machine-credential
username / become_method / become_user, and inventory host
names — a low-privileged user can inject Jinja that ansible-core
evaluates in the execution environment. This enables execution
of arbitrary commands in the execution environment (bypassing an
administrator's AD_HOC_COMMANDS module allowlist) and disclosure
of secrets belonging to credentials the attacker cannot read
(by templating a co-attached credential's injected environment
variables), across the credential access-control boundary.

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.
Experimental. This forecast is provided for visualization only and may change without notice. Do not use it for operational decisions.
Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.
Sightings
| Author | Source | Type | Date | Other |

Nomenclature
- Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
- Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
- Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
- Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
- Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
Vulnerability timeline
Sightings and recorded dates, grouped by day · UTC
How durations are calculated
Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.
Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
